Joss Whedon Making Another Marvel Superhero Actioner??
I am – Hercules!!
“If somebody pointed to me and said, ‘you want to make a Black Widow movie?’ the answer would be ‘Duh,’” Joss Whedon tells IGN.
“For two reasons: I think that character really is very interesting and very earthbound and so it’s the kind of action that I got to do less of with somebody like Thor or The Vision. When you get into your Superman territory it’s harder to maintain that sort of gritty action that the Russo brothers do so beautifully. And she’s got that kind of thing…and really do a spy thriller, really do a good, paranoid sort of John LeCarré on crack sort of thing. Also, Scarlett Johansson is just delightful. She works really hard, but she just spends most of her time cracking me up, so it would be a fun shoot.”
Whedon directed the two highest-grossing Marvel movies of all time.
If you ran Marvel, wouldn’t you lose your job if you didn’t offer Whedon “Black Widow” right now?
Here’s Whedon making news at the 7:30 mark:
